The Belgian league put the cat amongst the waffles yesterday by declaring the Jupiler League over and Bruges champions. They sorted out their TV and other commercial arrangements and can start next season as soon as it is safe to do so.
There are very few calls to cut seasons short. Tight leagues, such as in Italy and Spain, would forever have questions hanging over them, while those assured of winning the title, as in Scotland and England, want to do so on the field, not at a league meeting. Still, it was nice to see panic among the Null and Voiders, who would rather everyone lost than anyone (Celtic) won.
The Belgians have been pragmatic but premature, football is finished for the season, their champions are assured without controversy and they will accommodate those threatened with relegation. The rest of Europe still clings to the hope that competition can start behind closed doors in the summer. It will next month before we know if this is possible, there is no reason to make decisions before then.

He can’t be a Celtic payer- he’s no unzipped his banana and he’s trying to eat it.

I just want to end this season by playing it out, title and cup before we even think about next season, no matter when that is.
Let’s get 9 and the quadruple treble then go for 10.
Lee Naylor must be looking to find the ball he just crossed, in that pic
Time for a break. Start back at 10: 05. Two rounds left, including “wHoops am I “?
Fairhill Bhoy
Dont even know if there is a league sponsor next year,
i know Ladbrokes aint doing it anymore
SFTB
Apologies about the banana bhoy.

I was too stressed to clock the banana
Doh
SFTB,VG

Fairhill Bhoy,
mind having a fair few good games against Fairhill amateurs back in the late 90s early 2000’s.
Did you play with them? Around then?
HAIL! HAIL!

I don’t know how anyone could have looked at that pic and missed the banana :-)
Hope you are back to being healthier
So it wasn’t Freddie Ljungberg after all. Mind you, it wasn’t Tony Watt either – I just associate him with ‘that’ strip…
Gutenburg
I am with you,
if needed increase the division and play each other home and away,
would do away with the ridiculous split.
SFTB . 9.56
Harsh but funny
CRC .
No rush pal
SFTB,
firstly how are you my ole son?
Secondly, the bold Lee knew how to send in a very high ball to the back post…..that often went waaaay behind and past the back post.

You mind BRTH will be on at 22:30…just saying…:)
Keep the Faith!
Hail Hail!
BADA-yip and that scenario wouldn’t help get one
TTT
Keeping fine in this extended home break.
I have often advocated that Celtic needed a late and wide runner beyond the back stick. Izzy was guilty of over-pumping it too, but, for Lee Naylor, you might have needed someone standing at the corner flag to get on the end of some of his.

The sneaky ones are the bonus points…..

Round 4: Head to Head: Who scored the most competitive goals for Celtic
( 1 point for each question answered correctly. If you are the first person to answer a question correctly then you get a bonus point. Only your first guess will count)
1 Tommy Boyd v Anton Rogan
2 Paul McStay v Willie Fernie
3 Tom McAdam v Simon Donnelly
4 Alan Thompson v Ronnie Glavin
5 Shunsuke Nakamura v Tommy Johnson
SFTB,
glad to hear it. Been a good while now since last spoke.
And you are not far wrong with the corner flag with Lee :-)
And the late run to the back post from wide right was something i agree 100% with you on. Happened so often with Izzy as you say
Go! You don’t want a UEFA fine for starting the 2nd half late….
